If you've got a talent, protect it.
You never know what motivates you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
